Benefits and Drawbacks of Memory Care in Modesto

  • Modesto is among the more affordable places to live in California with an overall cost of living that’s about 35 percentage points below the state norm. Grocery and utility expenses in this city exceed the national average, but seniors may reduce living expenses by opting for long-term residential care.
  • Modesto seniors pay some of the highest state income taxes on nearly all their retirement income, which may affect memory care budgets. However, Social Security benefits are exempt, making the state a retiree-friendly option for those who rely primarily on this form of income.
  • The air quality in Modesto is very poor, which may be a consideration for seniors with cardiovascular or respiratory conditions. The American Lung Association gives the region the lowest possible scores across three categories, including Ozone, Particle Pollution 24-hour and Particle Pollution Annual. Memory care facilities typically organize indoor activities throughout the year to accommodate those sensitive to environmental pollutants.
  • On a 100-point crime index, with a higher score indicating more incidents, Modesto rates 46.6 for violent crime and 62.8 for property-related offenses. By comparison, the national norms are 22.7 and 35.4, respectively. To keep vulnerable seniors safe, memory care facilities feature controlled access and secured courtyards.
  • Modesto seniors have access to several volunteer-based and public transportation options, including Senior Connection, Dial-A-Ride and Angel on Wheels. This can help seniors attend medical appointments and reduce their reliance on paid services available through their residential facilities.
  • Modesto residents enjoy favorable weather throughout the year, including mild winters with daytime temperatures in the mid-50s and warm summers with highs in the low-90s. Memory care facilities often plan community outings and therapeutic outdoor activities to give residents opportunities to enjoy the weather.
  • Modesto offers very high access to health care with four hospitals within the city, including Stanislaus Surgical Hospital, Doctors Medical Center Modesto, Kaiser Permanente Modesto Medical Center and Memorial Medical Center. Medical expenses, such as doctor’s office visits and hospital stays, come in about 5% below the national average, making care affordable for those managing chronic conditions.
